Hayao Miyazaki (宮崎 駿) has created not only great animation movies over his career but also many manga works. His long lasting Kaze no Tani no Nausicaa (風の谷のナウシカ) in which his homonym movie is based is probably his most famous manga work but he has also published sporadically short manga stories in MODEL GRAPHIX (モデルグラフィックス) magazine. Here a list of the books that collect those watercolor manga works:
